I FINALLY made it to Nice n Easy Organic Bistro! I have been looking forward to it since the time I met the Co-owners Dimitris Christoforidis & Executive Chef Christos Athanasiadis. I had the pleasure of having Chef Christos come into my kitchen and cook for me! See that episode here…. https://youtu.be/aP7a5xMFeio
There are 3 locations in Greece! I was at the Mykonos location aka Little Venice. Nice n Easy is know for its locally grown produce combined with a Hollywood Influence. They serve Farm-To-Table Cuisine with an Organically Grown Cycladic Flare. And as bonus you get beautiful sunsets free of charge!

As a proud Greek girl from Chicago, I have always been very passionate about food! I grew up watching my family make all of our food from scratch and run restaurants and bakeries from the ground up. Everything from traditional cuisine to deep dish pizza and juicy burgers to high end sushi; food has been something that has always brought me together with my family and friends. I thoroughly enjoy the process of preparing a meal at home, taking in the ambiance of a fancy restaurant, or letting loose at a backyard barbeque. The experience that surrounds food is always what makes a meal the most memorable to me. My favorite thing to do is to try something new and then spread that to as many people as I can, as quickly as possible! This idea and finding those amazing places where a table of two can rapidly turn into a table of twenty is what helped inspire my passion project, “Dishwith Trish”, an entertainment piece that exposes all the food, culture and parts of life that people are missing for themselves. It gives me the ability to spread the joy that I experience to others and give people an opportunity to open themselves up, becomfortable, and see what life can really bring with it!
